Assessment Task
There are numerous leadership styles used in nursing, all of which impact the quality of care provided and, ultimately, patient outcomes. Five commonly used styles in nursing include transactional leadership; transformational leadership; democratic leadership; authoritarian leadership and laissez-faire leadership.
- Choose three of the above-listed leadership styles. Critically analyze each of your chosen styles by examining the benefits and limitations of each. Identify clinical situation(s) where the leadership style/s may be appropriate and provide your rationale.
- Choose a nursing role model from your previous clinical placement or workplace (e.g., a preceptor, nurse manager, associate nurse unit manager, senior registered nurse, clinical support nurse, or an educator). Briefly introduce your role model by including their position and the clinical context in which you worked with them (ensure you maintain their anonymity). Identify the leadership style or styles they use and describe their behaviors and actions that demonstrate the style(s).
- Discuss how your role model's leadership style promotes professional practice and quality care. Include the NMBA Registered Nurse Standards for Practice and other literature to support your discussion.
